Using totalopenstation-cli-parser

If no input file is specified, input is read from stdin.

Output goes to stdout by default, but it is recommended to use the -o option.

Raw parsing

The --raw option is useful when exporting to CSV for processing in other programs, and will export all field records found in the raw data from the total station. It only makes sense for certain input formats where the original measurements are stored, namely:

  • Leica GSI

  • Nikon RAW

  • Carlson RW5
